Please tell me there is a chance I won't or at least that it will be minimal. I need to hear someone's story that didn't experience this.

I looked at your topic and thought,me neither but I'm losing it anyway..hehehe.We all think we might be the one not to lose it.Right!

Some dont but most do.Its not as bad as it seems.Most of us have more hair than we ever could have imagined.I have been lsoing loads for 3 months now and you cannot see my scalp or anything.It is a bit thinner but hey,I am a lot thinner...lol

Dont worry about it,it will be ok.

I agree with desertmom. I can see all of the hair in the shower coming out in clumps, but it isn't really noticeable to anyone else. Does anyone know when the hair loss thing stops?

My hair thinned but I and my hair stylist were the only ones that noticed. Take your vitamins and get your protein - that'll help. Its a side effect for many just due to having surgery - the anesthesia can have that effect. You don't go bald - but you probably will lose some hair. Small price to pay to keep your life and be healthy.

I don't want to lose mine either, but it has started within the last week or so. It's scary. I hope it will only be noticeable to me and not to anyone else.

I'm 8 1/2 months out and my hair has thinned and now started to return. Its NOT THAT BAD!

My hair was really thin to begin with. It is super thin now. My scalp is super noticable.... and it isn't just my imagination. You can search for the thread I started showing my hair loss. It is worse now. I need to update it.

I think the posts will be all related to losing hair. It is a fact that 100% of us will lose hair after surgery. Some will lose more than others, I lost a lot of mine at 4 months and it has finally stopped falling out at 7 months. Good luck to you.

make sure to take "Biotin" everyday. I actually have fine hair and it seems that my hair is getting thicker. Some say it works others don't. It doesn't hurt to try it because if it helps will only benefit you.

Thank u for the replies. Fact is I have a TON of hair so hopefully it won't be too bad. I has 2 c sections and I don't remember any significant hair loss. I did read an article a while back linking hair loss to what the body perceives as malnutrition. I feel like Sampson when it comes to my hair. I know that sounds vain but true nonetheless.

I can understand. My hair is very long (almost to my ankles). It's one of the reasons I'm so afraid of the hair loss that has just begun because cutting it really isn't an option. I hear that long hair shows the hair loss a lot more clearly. Oh well. It's in the Lord's hands. If I need to be bald and humbled, at least I'll be doing it in a smaller body. LOL!

I was losing a lot about 2 months out.. handfuls at a time. I have (had) very thick hair so no one has really noticed but me. Then I started using Fall Fight shampoo from Garnier... it has biotin in it and isn't expensive at all... can even get it at walmart lol. Used to use salon shampoo (Redken) but when I started using Fall Fight I swear I'm losing less. Idk may be my imagination but sure seems to be helping... and hey, can't hurt right?

I am going to search for fall fight now!

What I would like to know is if the hair fallsmout again after plastics as people seem to lose hair after a lot of different major surgeries.
